1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

it gives you a part number. thats the big thing

 

In my 10 months of ownership (today marks the day) finally, I was able to put in 15 gallons.

I barely reach the 12 gallon mark every fill up.

 

i put 21 gallons in the tundra last week it hurt me wallet.





and it was 48 bucks

 

We're used to the 3.60 to 4.60 fluctuations here in CA.

Funny thing is I'd fill up the Corvette as often as I'd fill up the Tacoma.

 

Light come on? Mine usually comes on when I hit the 15 gallon mark

 

Good question, no the light was not on.

I can't let the light come on even if I forced myself to; I always fill up right at quarter tank.

I was but an ass hair away from the light though LOL

 

Best I could find so far (all the vendors have that min quantity). Going to check a few places in the morning. For 38 bucks I should just use t-taps (hate those things). Splicing my cap brake light into the connector. Figured I'd do it clean vs those crappy vampire taps.



has to be some vendor out there that doesn't charge a min quantity or min price... Waytek wire is usually pretty good but they don't have it. TTI is another good source but also no stock.

 

Honestly for connections like your doing I cut the wire and use a butt splice without covering on it and use my own heatshrink.
It’s how Toyota does junctions from
The factory If they don’t do it at the connector

 

What connector do you need? I had @mechanicjon contact Yazaki corporate to source me the power door kick panel connectors, but they require you to buy in bulk - plus my connectors were discontinued when the 2nd Gen ended in 2015.

 

perfect.

 

Its the taillight connector. Didn't want to snip and splice but better than those bloody t-taps.

 

Go buy a Curt 4-pin Tacoma trailer harness. It gives you an entire jumper harness to build off of.

 

unless I'm looking at the wrong curt 4-pins, that's almost as much as ordering those terminals in bulk. I'll do another check - thx.

 

Tail lights come with new tail light harnesses

 

As OCD as I am, I'm bad about that. The gas light comes on and its nerve wracking to think of what sediment is being sucked off the near bone dry tank... hahaha

 

You have two filters that keep that from being a concern

 

just cut the taillight harness. your not damaging the important harness

 

yeah I have a new taillight. I wanted to pull the terminal out of the connector, snip it off and add-in my lead for the cap brake light. Crimp, reinsert into connector - poof, done. I'm going to just snip and splice. screw it.

 

after dropping MANY gas tanks. i have yet to actually have one with sediment in it.

 

What's the damage you're trying to fix?
